    Greetings All,

    I ran across this website while browsing for replacement battery for my 2005 Prius. This car is a real trooper. :)

    It is at 150,000 miles and still going strong, but I know the laws of physics, chemistry and averages are against me.

    I'd be interested to hear from fellow Jersey-ites regarding replacement battery solutions.

    Cheers,

    Tom

    Welcome aboard Tom. I am sure you already looked on ebay for a reconditioned battery. Might be cheaper locally though. Good luck.

    Welcome, Tom. Although it is good to start lining up sources the hybrid system is just coming off warranty. The odds are that you have a LONG time before you'll need the traction battery.
